...much masterminding a comeback as holding on for dear life. Still, the campaign has had its moments of tactical ingenuity. After McCain's debate zinger in which he noted that he hadn't been to Woodstock because he was "tied up at the time," the campaign produced a TV ad that probably got more attention via free publicity than its paid air time. And the evening after a CNN anchor criticized McCain for playing along with an over-zealous crowd member's obscene description of Hillary Clinton, Davis sent out an e-mail solicitation alleging that CNN attacked because McCain...
That leaves the states to keep pushing Washington. On the same day that the Midwest deal was signed, the green group Environmental Defense announced that it would begin airing a 30-sec. ad featuring three Western governors - Republican Govs. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jon Huntsman Jr. of California and Utah, and Democratic Gov.

It shows Republican hopeful Mike Huckabee, sitting at a table with Texas-based Kenneth Copeland on the Believers Voice of Victory set, next to a bowl of fruit and an open Bible. The ad invites viewers to "tune in as" the two men "sit down for six days of frank discussion on the biblical perspective of character." The ad quotes Huckabee: "Character is who we are when nobody's looking...
...Senate probe is one thing. But the Charisma ad has introduced a campaign wrinkle to it: Will Huckabee, who is riding a wave of momentum and currently polling second among Republicans in Iowa prior to its caucuses, stick by Copeland and risk putting himself on the wrong side of Grassley as he forges ahead with his investigation...
